For those who are indifferent about taking pictures there is a chance to bask in the sunshine and beautiful surroundings Japan offers. Hanami 花見 (literally meaning ‘flower’ and ‘look’) is the unique Japanese cultural phenomenon of going outside to look at the flowers in bloom. It sounds incredibly dull, but for all those people who have yearned to go to the park on a dreary English summer’s day, this is for you. Bring a picnic and the essential ice cold beer and possibly a frisbee if you have one.
